Havu wird wieder kommen und gut sein. Nur wann. Ich denke in Richtung Oslo es wird schon passen. Er springt nun bereits wieder.
That is good to hear. Last I have heard about him was that his leg hurt when he tried to jump. But good if things are again looking better. I do sincerely hope that he will make a full recovery to the hills. It is just so, that often it is very difficult after one or two bad injuries. Many careers have ended because of smaller accidents than what Havu has had. They may have came back but never been the same. many also later admit that getting badly hurt was the reason. Year or two ago there was interview with Löde about the matter. He is one of those, who came back after bad falls but have later admit that it would have been better to end the career because it was never the same again. And he is a guy who jumped K-30 hill with mini skis, at Russia, and only at the table it came to his mind that it may not had been his brightest idea ever.
I'm also little bit against putting to much hopes to Havu because if it is done publicly and he isn't doing as well as hoped, it is always ugly. Of course he is not Rane or Harri or Anssi, so it would not be that bad but still. I for one am very happy that tomorrow only 7 will not qualified. because of the great expectations and hype the backslash has also been quick. Already at people comments at MTV3, Yle and other places Anssi is criticized heavily, told to stop playing ski jumper and to go back to combi etc. Luckily he will probably make it to the competition tomorrow. People will probably not know that only 7 jumpers will not qualify so at least getting to the competition will quiet the backslash some.
With Harri I'm quite ambivalent. NiemelÀ got a lot of praise about being strong and brave when he banned Harri. Especially press id for the decision unanimously. If Harri will be back, NiemelÀ will seem weak to the public and I'm not sure if he will be willing to go through that. For Harri ban for life is currently so popular punishment among the public (almost as popular than daily spankings until he learns to behave :zunge2
that taking him back asks some thick skin and I'm not sure if NiemelÀ has that. Then again, if others don't do as well as public hopes for, it will also ask thick skin not to take Harri back.
